The relatively new show “Teachers,” which airs on TV Land, has been a surprisingly popular show that has far exceeded the expectations of most individuals. There are actually a lot of reasons why the show has been as successful as it has. Below are five reasons that you should be watching the show. Even if you’ve seen the previews and have been less than impressed, the show is worth taking a look at. Before you know it, you might find yourself hooked.
1. It’s funny
If you love humor on the edge, you will probably think this is one of the funniest television shows to come around in quite some time. Even if that isn’t really your thing, you are likely to find yourself laughing at it more than you think you will. At its core, the show is funny even if some people do find it to be a little too much. Therefore, if you are looking for something that you can sit down and laugh at without having to analyze or record every episode in existence, this just might be the show for you.
2. It’s satire at its best
The thing about satirical comedy is that it is frequently raw and as far as some are concerned, it is downright unacceptable. However, more and more people are starting to accept satire instead of the traditional politically correct way to say things. If you happen to be one of those individuals and you truly enjoy satire, then you will undoubtedly enjoy this particular series. It sometimes takes satirical comedy to an entirely new level, and that isn’t always a bad thing.
3. It makes fun of the school system in the most extreme way
Unless you happen to live in an area where your school system is practically perfect, every parent has understood the frustration of dealing with the school system and trying to get something across to a teacher, a principal or someone similar. This is a show that makes fun of the entire school system and many parents find it refreshingly funny. If you have ever dealt with a school system that doesn’t communicate well or seems to employ people that are somewhat clueless, you will understand why this is funny.
4. It turns the nightly news into comedy with a healthy dose of irony
These days, everywhere you turn you are looking at news stories that discuss unspeakable acts between teachers and students. It is almost as if teachers themselves have forgotten how to conduct themselves with any level of decorum whatsoever. All this show really does is take what is actually happening in the school system today and turn it into a comedy. If you like irony, you will enjoy the show and you should be watching it. There is more than healthy dose of it in nearly every episode.
5. It gives you a chance to relax
Let’s face it, most shows are designed so that if you miss a single episode, you have no idea what is going on in the next one. With everyone having such a busy schedule these days, it can be hard to catch up on episodes even with the ability to record them and watch them at your convenience. On the other hand, you can watch this series whenever you want and missing an episode is no big deal. Each episode manages to stand on its own so if you are looking for something that will give you a chance to relax and you don’t want to have to keep up with it every single week, this is the perfect opportunity.
